MAG Pre-order Bonuses: Choose your PMC

After our huge showing at PAX, we are happy to follow it up today with our announcement of the pre-order items for MAG. From exclusive in-game characters to a one-of-a-kind Home Space to the long-awaited Public Beta access, we’ve got something for every new MAG operative. Are you ready to be one of us come January 26, 2010? Then get pre-ordering soldier!

Exclusive S.V.E.R In-Game Character

This exclusive S.V.E.R. (Seryi Volk Executive Response) Hazard Trooper comes with the unique Hazard Camo Pattern, Hazard Improved Ballistic Vest, and the Hazard Improved Helmet. S.V.E.R. operatives live for the chance to achieve the honor they believe they deserve. The Hazard design is ideal for instilling the fear they are so used to administering on the battlefield. “The fire within fuels the true warrior.”

Quoting a recent Raven press release, “Spyder defense materials are designed by Raven Industries top field weapons researchers. Stealthy yet defensive, the Spyder materials increase Raven operatives ability to take control of the battle with superior technology.”

Exclusive VALOR In-Game Character

This exclusive Valor in-game operative comes with a unique Bulldog Camo Pattern, the Bulldog Mk 2 Reinforced Fiber, and the Bulldog Mk 2 Helmet. For a Valor Company operative, donning the battle tested Bulldog uniform communicates a level of preparedness, induces intimidation in the enemy, and perfectly matches their motto – “Improvise, adapt, and overcome”.

Pre-order info TBD.

Exclusive S.V.E.R. PlayStation Home Personal Space

This S.V.E.R. PlayStation Home Space comes custom-made with the unconventional look of this unique PMC, focusing on beige and earth-toned gear, perfect for the guerrilla-style fighter within. If you live by the creed, and feel fear and intimidation are the cornerstones of any good fighting force, then show-off your true colors with a one-of-a-kind space.

If you’re not a Qore subscriber, but you’re ready to try out the most anticipated new shooter on the market before the game launches, here’s your chance to pre-order now and get into the final big Public Beta window that starts 10/12/2009. All of you that pre-order through this method will get an exclusive window of playing time after 11/9…and the Beta window will be open 24/7.

The Home Personal Space is about the only one I’d actually consider. But wow, it’s hard to believe the day is almost here already. Time flies by so fast. Some games float up three or four years before they release, so the fact that this one was only announced last year makes it seem so incredibly soon. And yet it looks so damn good. You guys have done a great job here. I’ll have my congratulations ready at the finish line. =)

(Maybe you could stop by the blog after you finish up and share some thoughts on the whole process. There are certainly a lot of interesting aspects to this game that would make for interesting stories.)

To people who do not know for the exclusive GameStop pre-order beta ALL CLOSED BETA PARTICIPANTS WILL STILL BE IN THE BETA TESTING DURING THAT TIME. If we weren’t they wouldn’t be able to fill a game much like now you can hardly fill a game.

While I would like these bonuses, I pre-order from play n trade. Because I choose a different store and you make a couple more bucks by offering these bonuses to other stores, its crap. I loath pre-order bonuses.

Hope it’s like Batman: AA … you could get various bonuses such as the special bat armor or the scarecrow content, but you can still get that later on either via paying for scarecrow content or by finishing the game for the armor.

I was screwed over for the killzone pre-order cause I’m canadian, I missed out on a few things for INfamous due to the multiple pro-order places, plus lack of pre-order store information before it’s launch …

Either the stuff is still coming down the line via paid addon or by simply leveling up, or I ain’t pre-ordering it.

I’m glad to hear that myself and the people already in the beta now can continue into the next stages. But since I preordered it months ago from Gamestop.com, do I get any of these bonuses? Is it some kind of exclusive Amazon.com, Gamestop, Gamecrazy, Walmart, Kmart, Victoria’s Secret, etc kind of deal or what? Details would be fantastic so I know if I need to cancel my current preorder or not.
